Believe it or not, this long promised delight is
finally OUT! We would have been all primed to go, but we paid a
guy a
bunch of
cash to design the record, and he royally screwed us by giving
us a bunch of files which were completely unusable, and refused
to give us the raw files...blah blah blah. But that's ancient
history...Above is the new artwork. Much better than what
we had before. The record
compiles various Skin Yard seven inchers including the Start
at the Top single from Sub Pop, rare tracks from comps, and
a bunch
of odds and ends which never saw the light of day. It is
very limited, and hand numbered in an edition of only 1200
(and
that's only if
we get through the first run of 700). None of the material
has ever been on CD before...get yours which we've still
got them to
get!

MIA ZAPATA'S KILLER HAS BEEN FOUND AND ARRESTED

Jesus C. Mezquia, 48, was arrested late Friday,
January 11th in the Miami area and charged with first-degree
murder of Mia
Zapata, according to a Miami-Dade County police spokesperson.

DNA tests linked Mezquia, a resident of Marathon, Florida, to
the crime scene and prompted his arrest.

Seattle police submitted evidence to crime labs for genetic
testing last year, but it yielded no matches. Only after information
on Mezquia, a convicted felon, was entered into the National
DNA Index System in December was a parallel drawn. Subsequent
evidence also placed Mezquia in the Seattle area at the time
of the killing.

Mezquia is being held without bond in Miami-Dade County Jail,
where he is contesting his extradition to Seattle, according
to a spokesperson from the Florida state attorney's office. A
court hearing on the matter has been set for February 12, and
a public defender has been appointed to handle the extradition
case. Since Mezquia wants his case to be heard in Florida and
not Seattle, the case could take several months before going
to trial.

Actually, this one's been out for a while, but due to financial
constraints we were pretty limited as to the amount of promotions
C/Z could afford. This Remix EP includes some fantastic mixes by
several masters including some great work by Robin Guthrie of The
Cocteau Twins, John McEntire of Tortoise fame, MAIN and several
more. A total of 7 tracks guaranteed to amaze. Available on both
CD and 12" vinyl.

Love Battery

Yes, there IS a new record...well not that new anymore...it came
out last year, but it still rocks! The title is Confusion Au
Go Go, and in the opinion of we here at C/Z, is easily the best
record
they've released since Dayglo. It hard to know what's going on
with these guys these daze as Kevin has become a proud father,
which makes the life of an active musician rather difficult (as
I know all too well). Owning the record is the next best thing
to seeing the band live, which may be a pretty tall order.
